Thanks Doug.

I have noticed that when I am limited to shorter exposures, I have to stretch them too much to bring out the desired effect. Then I have to use post-processing tricks to smooth the artifacts out. Noise reduction etc.

Now that I am taking very long subs, (15 minutes) and many more of them, with lots of flats and lots more darks, the result is a LOT LESS playing around with the image, giving it a much more natural feel.

I reckon the less you have to do to an image after you have taken it, the better.

Baz.
